startInUnits

The absolute start time boundary. Applies to Video on Demand (VoD) or Live Streaming. This is a long value that represents an absolute start point of the stream. The value gets rounded to the closest next GOP start. The unit is defined by unit_timescale_in_miliseconds, so a start_in_units of 15 would be for 15 seconds. Use start_in_units and end_in_units to trim the fragments that will be in the playlist (manifest). For example, start_in_units set to 20 and end_in_units set to 60 using unit_timescale_in_miliseconds in 1000 will generate a playlist that contains fragments from between 20 seconds and 60 seconds of the VoD presentation. If a fragment straddles the boundary, the entire fragment will be included in the manifest.
